I have a unit that is about 4 years old and appears to NOT hold a charge. I know to only charge for 3 hrs max but want to be sure my problem is the $75.00 battery before I purchase one. What is your opinion if I have to keep pressing down on the trigger over and over and over again?

Answers :

Your battery is losing voltage too quick. It has probably developed a \012'memory'. Dyson claims that their handheld has the best suction out of \012all the handhelds out there. In order to maintain that claim the circuit\012 board will shut off power to the motor when the voltage drops below \012adequate charge for full suction.\012We need someone who can teach us to bypass that part of the circuit so \012it won't cut power to the motor or you need to get a new battery.\012Shorting the battery like an Aircraft battery then re-charging won't fix it.

I recently purchased a Rowenta electric table lighter that is powered by a Mallory M-215 battery. The battery looks like a regular 9 volt, but only has one contact point (in the center) of each end. It says it is 22 1/2 volts. Can you help me in finding where I can purchase a new battery?

Battery charge I just purchased a new battery pack insert for my Roomba, Replacement
was a breeze and it now works great. My question is; The last battery I
bought ( not from you) was a full cased roomba battery pack that didn't
last a year. Roomba says leave the r Roomba charging all the time so
it's ready when you need it, and that's nice but I feel that leaving it
charging like that it will kill the battery faster as it is always warm
to the touch. These battery's should last at least 5

I purchased a brand new P113 Ryobi charger about 2 years ago. It has never worked. If I put a P104 battery in for a charge, it looks like it works correctly. I push the battery tester on the battery itself, and it says full charge, but when I go to use the bateery, it dies right away. I have tried three new P104 batteries. The batteries charge on my charger at work with no problem. The funny thing is, I don't need a battery in the charger and the charger does the same thing, It runs the test

If you have your receipt, check with Ryobi to see if it is still under warranty. It comes with either a 2 or 3 year warranty, depending on when it was purchased. If it is still covered, get it replaced/repaired. If it is not, buy the P117 charger. $3 ...

Manual A friend of mine just cleaned out her garage and gave me a Westinghouse WST1600 vacuum that was rarely used. I purchased new #25 fuses and have had the battery pack plugged in for over 10 hours and when I put in into the vacuum and press the on button a green light flashes, but the motor does not start. Can I get this vacuum to work?

I recently purchased the Bissell Proheat Clearview from a flea market. Used once for a demo. I tried to use it yesterday, and while the handheld upholstery attachments work like a charm, the scrubber itself does not release any water when the trigger is pulled. Any suggestions?

The trigger in the control housing doesn't work and leaks water/soap all over. I need to purchase a new one.

WST 1600A I purchased this vaccum about four months ago from Heartland America. Up to this point it's worked fine. After cleaning it this time when I went to start vaccuming again it runa for about 10 seconds and cuts off. I've changed the battery, taken everything that can be removed out checked it and replaced it. THe motor sounds like it's straining. I have not taken the housing off the motor to see what's going on with that. I misplaced my manual.
